I have a 2004 GMC truck and the rack and pinion has broken. What makes this happen?
 
What broke? Tie rod, R&P housing? Mount? Steering shaft?
This obviously isn't a common concern - visually check it carefully to see if there's any evidence of it being struck with a foreign object or other road debris.
 
i have done it by hitting the wheel on a curb or something else really hard. Also if you bottom the truck out on the rack.
